How to Cook Brown Rice

Langkah-langkah

1. Rinse the rice: Place rice in a mesh strainer and rinse under cold water until water runs clear.
2. In a medium pot with a tight-fitting lid, combine 2 cups water, rinsed rice, and olive oil and bring to boil.
3. Reduce the heat to low and cover. Allow the rice to simmer for about 40-45 minutes, or until all the water has been absorbed and the rice is tender. If at any point the pot looks dry, add a little more water to ensure the rice doesn't burn to the pot.
4. Once the rice is fully cooked, remove the saucepan from the heat and let it sit for 10 minutes with the lid still on. This will allow the rice to absorb any remaining moisture and become fluffy. After 10 minutes, remove the lid and fluff the rice with a fork. Top with herbs as desired.
5. In a large pot, bring 6 cups water and the olive oil to boil over high heat.
6. Rinse the rice: Place rice in a mesh strainer and rinse under cold water until water runs clear.
7. Once the water is boiling, add rice and stir to combine.
8. Boil the rice uncovered for 30 minutes, or until tender. Adjust the heat as needed so the rice stays at a steady boil (and make sure it doesn't overflow!).
9. Once the rice is fully cooked, drain away the excess water, then return the rice to the now-empty pot. Cover and let sit off of the heat for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, remove the lid and fluff the rice with a fork. Top with herbs as desired.
